Summary

A severely malnourished and anemic dog named Jimbo found alone on the streets was rescued and nursed back to health over 12 days. After a difficult 8-day recovery period, he has made remarkable progress and is now eating well, gaining weight, and regaining his happy personality despite needing continued rest and short walks.

    Jimbo all alone on the streets 12 days ago. His little body was in a horrendous state. He wasn’t going to last much longer. Today we have him back smiling… (1/5) 🧵

    I’d love to say his recovery has been easy but it hasn’t. With such severe anemia and bad blood as well as horrendous stomach issues Jimbo went downhill for about 8 days (2/5)

    I’ve never seen a dog sleep so much. He is very young at maybe 2 years old but his body was just broken and starved. He couldn’t even walk 100 yards without needing to sleep again (3/5)

    This is Jimbo today. Look at the bounce on him. The strut. He’s stated to hold good down and put on weight. (4/5)

    He still has a lot of sleeping to do and the walks are still very short. But the smile is back on Jimbo’s face. He’s one of the nicest little gentlemen you could ever meet ❤️ (5/5)
